Get ready to lace up, dress up, and run for a cause!
Welcome to the Monsters, Miles & Miracles 5K — a Halloween costume run where spooky meets meaningful and every mile has a purpose.
Come dressed as your favorite Halloween character, bring your family and friends, and get ready for a fun-filled 5K celebrating movement, community, and hope.
This race is especially close to my heart. After an 8-year infertility journey that ultimately gave us our two greatest miracles, I’m running the NYC Marathon with Team RESOLVE to help raise awareness and support for the millions of people navigating infertility.
Whether you run, walk, jog, push a stroller, or simply come dressed to have fun — you belong at the starting line.
Expect costumes, smiles, spooky fun, and maybe a few surprises along the way.
Come for the costumes.
Stay for the cause.
Run for the miracles.
Every step helps bring awareness, hope, and support to those still waiting for their miracle.
